Tariff interruption raises regulatory concerns

TNB’s cash flow to remain neutral despite delay

PETALING JAYA: While the delay in the periodic electricity tariff review will likely have a neutral impact on Tenaga Nasional Bhd’s (TNB) cash flow, the extension of the current electricity tariff schedule poses a regulatory risk to TNB.

Late last week, the Energy Commission and TNB said the periodic electricity tariff review, comprising both the Regulatory Period 3 (RP3) implementation and half-yearly imbalance cost pass-through (ICPT) review, has been delayed until further notice.
